“Take some books and read; that’s an immense help; and books are always good company if you have the right sort.”
― Louisa May Alcott, Little Women

Dear lovely reader,

Who am I, you’re asking? The short answer is- a book enthusiast!

I’m Elena Rose, the chapter junkie responsible for this site. I am the Bookish Queen, have been an avid reader my entire life, and hope to share a love for reading through this blog.

Thank you for taking the time to stop by. It’s likely that you also enjoy the world of stories- this site can help you create your own TBR pile!

Some of my best friends are fictional- anyone relate? Maybe you’re also best friends with Jo March, or Alice and the Mad Hatter.

I have loved reading from an extremely young age, and the thought of creating The Bookish Queen has been in the back of my mind for a while. In August of 2025, it finally came to life with the help and support of many family and friends, and it has been an absolutely incredible journey. I never expected anyone to actually be reading the words I thoughtfully write, and for thousands of people to have followed the journey via Instagram. I am so so blessed!

Perhaps you are wondering how I chose my blog name. I vividly remember being a young child and casually stating I wanted to read every book in the entire world. Naturally, that would make me the queen of stories, wouldn’t it??

Now I am proud to own the title Elena Rose the Bookish Queen and I feel so grateful and blessed that this blog is now a part of existence and no longer just a figment of imagination!

If you’re wondering about my favorite books- I have so many. There are many books that are dear to me in different ways, but my top favorite book of all time is Little Women by Louisa May Alcott. And I couldn’t forget the modern more modern series, The Twilight Saga!

Here is one more fact- one that you have perhaps already guessed- I am a hopeless romantic and can’t help falling in love with cute fictional men like Mr. Darcy or charming Laurie from Little Women. It’s not uncommon to find me weeping over my fictional boyfriends. 💜

I hope The Bookish Queen will encourage you to keep reading, and feel free to follow me on Instagram! @the_bookish_queen_

Blessings,

The Bookish Queen
